PAOK announced yesterday (03/11) that reached an agreement with Robert Dozier (206-F-85, agency: Rogue Sports, college: Memphis) for one year contract. The player will take the place of DeShawn Sims (203-F-88, college: Michigan) who left the team of Thessaloniki on Tuesday morning without informing anybody, even Rawle Marshall and Justin Gray who were his best friends in the team.

The team of Thessaloniki will move legally against its ex player (Sims) because they support that the player went back to USA even though they didnt owe money to him. As far as Dozier who played last year in VAP Kolossos Rodou it is very difficult to play to the next game against Aris on Saturday afternoon.
